Well it looks like we will have the Coldest night for the year here in
Perth tonight after a very wet day, the showers have abruptly pissed of
for the night, the SE'ly was in Perth by Nine pm when it was 9.9 C here
in Jandakot. Now Currently in Perth :-
PERTH METRO 29-04-00 00:25 7.6 6.3 SSE Calm Calm 1019.2 90
JANDAKOT AIRPORT 29-04-00 00:25 4.6 4.1 SSE Calm Calm 1019.5 96
It dropped 3� C in Perth in an hour just before midnight, Bickley
was on 7.6� C at 21:00 WST currently 6.3� C there at 00:00 obs time. So
it looks like it's goin to be a Bloody Freezing Night here in Perth,
maybe even some fog in the morning in a few areas even tho it it's
forecast, just abit of local knowledge here from living in previous
area's near were i am currently living, well if there is any fog in the
morning " Providing I am awake at the time ", it be to cold to get
out of Bed lol.
It will be interesting to see what the Minimum are in the more
colder area's of the state this morning ?, Blair would u like to comment
?. Like Hyden, Brookton, Wandering are just a few of the known cold
spots that regularly get low minimum, when the SW of the state has a
cold night.

An update on that, at 3:30am the temp was 5.4C at Perth City and at
Jandakot it was 2.7C
The coldest temp ever recorded at Perth City is 4.1C, but ofcourse there
has been numerous site changes for that site, so its not directly comparable.
Perth Airport was 5C at 3am, the record there is 1.2C

Hi all,
This Tropical Low has me interested - it looks to move south, and maybe
south-east from it's current position NW of New Caledonia. What is so
interesting, is that the timing of the surface trough and front, might
be enough to help weaken the ever-present Quidge along the coast. This
will help assist the low to move southwards. But what really has got my
interest, is the warming of the upper atmosphere over us over the past
24-36hrs. No doubt this will continue. But the best aspect about this,
means that a summer-type atmosphere may form over us. Meaning that the
jetstream over WA/SA and the sub-tropical jet will lie south of us. The
low might just move along the ridge/upper level trough boundary, and
move towards the coast with the steering flow of the tropical upper
level winds. While a tight iso-thermal gradient will be established to
our south, probably inducing a very strong jet. While the jet won't be
that strong over us, it should be pretty strong to the south! We might
have a bit of jet, but it shouldn't do too much damage, if anything it
might help enhance some outflow. It will be interesting to see what
happens - as even if a low does not hit us, but just stays off the coast
- with the new high coming through, it could give us some good gales,
and some mod-heavy rain.
Any other thoughts/opinions?

It has been a warm night in parts of SE Australia, and a cool one
in WA.
Adelaide had a minimum of 21.7, the warmest night so late in autumn,
and several other SA stations have topped 20. Cape Otway in Victoria
had 19, whilst in Tasmania, Strahan had 18 and several stations 17.
Hobart has also (at time of writing) equalled a late-season record
maximum with 25.7.
On the other side of the coin, south-western WA had a cool night with
many stations in mid-to-low single figures. No records were broken
as far as I know, but Perth Airport's 4 was its lowest in April
since 1971.
Quite windy in Melbourne as I write - 25-30 knots - but still mostly
clear, with the temperature around 25, well above average but still
3-4 degrees short of record territory for this time of year.
The short-range models are suggesting quite a bit of rain in SE SA
and western Victoria overnight; the South Australian forecast
has picked this up, but the Victorians haven't yet. (In the best
traditions of the 1996-2000 period, said rainband is forecast to
dissolve somewhere in the vicinity of Werribee).

The drought in southern Tasmania continues to intensify. Hobart's
total for the period from 1/5/99 to now is 310.5 mm; assuming no
significant rain between now and 9 tomorrow, this will be less than
50% of the annual mean of 624mm.
April itself has had 5.1 mm, not a record but obviously way below
normal. It will be Hobart's 13th consecutive month with below-average
rainfall.

BUREAU OF METEOROLOGY SOUTH AUSTRALIAN REGIONAL OFFICE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM
ADVICE Issued at 1:40 pm on Saturday, 29 April 2000 For people in the West
Coast, Eastern and Lower Eyre Peninsula and Yorke Peninsula. A line of
thunderstorms associated with a front is moving across Eyre Peninsula.
Severe wind squalls are possible with thunderstorms in the above districts
during this afternoon. Ahead of the front, strong northerly winds are
causing areas of thick dust and poor visibility.
Hopefully fingers crossed for some action.
But time will only tell......

Yeah, I've been watching some of these fronts come through and the
intensity of some of them. Anybody got any ideas on possible reasons for
this?
Could it have anything to do with the colder than average SST's further
south in the Southern Ocean?
Maybe this could eventually help push the highs a little further north.

PS: Wouldn't it be nice if some of these fronts matured and came our
way...you've gotta dream.
